When fitting new springs any writing,markings,have to face out towards you and writing must point up,that way you know the spring is fitted correct way round
This is a very good video . Shows you exactly how to do the job and it's not complicated . Well done . Forget the Genius comments re replacing worn bushes . We get the idea of how to do the job .
Great stuff!! excellent! my one of the back tyre spring has been broken need to changed but not sure about the shock absorber. Any idea how to understand if shock absorber needs to be changed or not?
Nice one - forget about trying to do Golf 5 rear springs with the 2 coil compressors as there is only space for one. The method in this video is better I think.
I don’t mean to criticise but when you had the lower arm supported with the jack,there was a lot of pressure on that lower rear arm bolt while removing it,hence having to use WD40 and the amount of drop you had from the hub?
I`m gonna do my Audi A3 ones soon, they are the same. But to be sure, I`ve purchased new top mounts and dust covers / bump stops.. Can`t do half a job.
Čaw chlape ,prosím ťa aký kábel používaš na diagnostiku ? a program máš kúpený alebo iba stiahnutý ? chcel by som si vyčistiť škrtiacu klapku a potom spraviť základné nastavenie +ešte nejaké drobnosti ponastavovať .. mám vw golf 5 rok 2004 za odpoveď ďakujem
kábel stal 380€ (kabel softver licencia na neobmedzený počet VIN). škrtica klapka sa nastaví aj bez neho, sama. /alebo ďalšia možnosť je kúpiť na aliexpresse kábel za 25€ ale nemám skúsenosti s takýím káblom
Zdravim ta, tiez sa chystam na celkovu vymenu. Mam na teba prosbu, ci by si mi neodmeral vzdialenost medzi zemou a krajom blatnika, o kolko sa mi to zdvihne ked dam nove pruziny. Ak by sa dalo tak s prazdnym kufrom. Ak si menil aj v predu mohol by si mi zmerat aj to. Velka vdaka
I replaced the rear wishbones (big arms) on my 2006 Passat, what a pain of a job getting the old rusty bolts out, totally necessary to get new ones before starting, the new wishbones came with the bushes made in. I replaced the outer bushes while I was there, a hole saw and a drill made short work of getting the old ones out, getting the new ones in was another job, good job I knew what to do, it involved grinding a chamfer on the hub with a Dremel as the new bush would no go in squarely. The car needed the alignment doing before I could use it, it was very strange to drive with the rear toe being miles out.
All those bolts need to be torqued. That bottom bolt for the shock needs to be 180nm of torque and with that small ratchet you probably tightened it to about 80 or 100...that bolt will come loose and will likely end your life.

Excellent DIY advice, changed my Seat Leon (Typ 1P; 2005-2012) rear springs this morning in less than two hours.

That shock absorbers not gonna last long with no dust cover
You got that right, not to mention that the bump stop is degraded beyond use. I replaced both of mine. They will last another 200,000 miles.

Gangsta style well done

Good video but why did you fit new rear shock and not put protective plastic sleeve back on?
Interesting view of how a caveman carries out this procedure....Thankyou for the input....

Half job worth doing twice!!
a good how to do it!! video
i think real DIY
What about replacing the bump stop on top of the shock? The one in video is gone! Rotted. Not good. The dusk cover appears to be worn as well.
Hey do you know how to fix 01130 implausible signal abs fault buddy
Thanks buddy
Where did the new nut that goes on top of the shock come from? Did it come with the shock or separate part ?
figured it out, comes with the shock
Wouldn't you know, easier than I thought.
Buen trabajo 👍
Tanks!
Благодарю за науку, спасибо с далёкой России ,и мирного неба
You really assembled that shocks with that broke bump stop rubber that is all eaten up..
Life isn't that easy in Bratislavia 😂
To jsi neměl 3 eura na nový doraz?
Molto utile 🔝
Yeah nice one
What is the name of the part directly above his wrist at 30 seconds? I bent mine and need to source a replacement
Wishbone

Ja taky kabel mam z ali, a ziaden problem s diagnostikou aj kodovanim a tiez som robil zakladne nastavenia egr po cisteni a aj turba po vymene

ked pojdem pre malu do školy tak to zmeram. auto sa dvihlo (do povodnej výšky) lebo už neškrkam tam kde som predtým škrkal. predne som ešte nemenil.
Vdaka, ja chcem vymenit a rozmyslam este nad podlozkami pod pruziny, ale ak nove pruziny to zdvyhnu dost vysoko, tak dam iba nove pruziny.
This is multilink right? Sorry im noob
It is possible to change the bushings of that big arm? Mines are destroyed and I think I have to change them or buy a new arm. What do you think?
it is easier to replace the whole new arm. but I also can not decide.
Inner bolt of that arm usually gets seized, and the only way to get it out is to use a grinder or hacksaw.

Dust protection kit cost only 5 euro why you dont add that to the shock absorbers?....
No dust covers you're crazy
Because fuck time and money lol
Im going to buy you some gloves and axle stands
no thank you am richie rich
Staubschutz und gummilager muss neu das ist sehr wichtig☝🏻😮

They seem like pretty sharp guys, when it comes loose, I bet they can figure out how to tighten it.
You should have replaced the shock top cups.
No no no.i obviously missed the part where you torqued and angle tightened and lower transverse arm to hub fastener.
For those of us that will use a tourqe wrench what are the settings please ?

Noticed that also
Shock part no pls

Kis olajat,vagy zsírt nem ártott volna tenni a menetekre,mert jobb lett volna dolgozni vele.

Do it right the first time.
Like the video. Most Americans talk too much and needlessly.
They were talking a shit ton too u just couldn't undertake their language.
Oh man. This is the worst of all.
